'Once Upon a Time' Recasts Its Robin Hood

03. September 2013

“Once Upon A Time Season 2 DVD for sale" will get a new Robin Hood when it
returns for a third season this fall. ABC confirms the casting scoop first revealed by TVLine that the show has tapped Sean Maguire to portray the famous vigilante for a recurring arc in the
upcoming installment.

"Merlin" star Tom Ellis played the Prince of Thieves in season 2 of the ABC fantasy drama series. However, he's unavailable to return and reprise the role in the next chapter due to scheduling
conflicts.

"Although we love Tom Ellis, unfortunately he wasn't available," series co-creator Adam Horowitz previously told the site. "We remain huge fans of his, but because we have an arc planned for the
character, we had to move forward."
